GRAMMAR SLIDE

The word “faux pas” — borrowed from French — means a social blunder. Both the singular form and the plural form are “faux pas”. (pronounced foe pa)

Someone apparently made up the word “foopah”. Probably the same idiot who said that “viola” is the same as “voilà”.

I think ‘faux pas’ literally means ‘false step’.
